Our Management Team

Kuljit Parmar has been at the helm of Knowledge Computers for over 15 years now. However, his tenure with Knowledge Computers started much earlier. Kuljit actually started as a student with Knowledge Computers’ wholly owned subsidiary, School of Computer Knowledge, back in 1981 when he was 6 years old. From an early age he showed a great interest in technology and was taken under the wing of founder Michael Goodliffe. As the years progressed, Kuljit continued on and joined the Knowledge Computers staff in 1986 when he was 10 years old. Going forward, Kuljit was involved in many IT projects but showed a strong understanding for networking technologies. Starting with early networking platforms such as Lantastic and moving on to Novell and Microsoft installations, Kuljit eventually made his way into the Wide Area Networking field. To further develop his skills in Corproate WAN’s he took on a 1 year contract position in Ontario, Canada. There he acted as a Senior IT Manager for a large publicly trading construction company with 30 offices throughout North America. On his return, he realized the very strong growth potential in Enterprise networking, and shifted the focus of Knowledge Computers from PC sales & training into the Enterprise networking arena. Kuljit quickly realized the strong demand for refurbished enterprise networking equipment not only in Canada but globally.

In 2002, after seeing great demand coming out of Southeast Asia, Kuljt approached Alan Ler, a Senior Network Engineer with AT&T, and Mei Leng Tang, a senior sales representative with Comstor Pte Ltd, to come aboard as managing partners in opening Knowledge Computers Singapore. Shortly there after Kuljit wanted to develop a presence in the USA to service our existing customers better. So he brought Dave Potter, an experienced Senior Sale Manager in the networking arena, on as a Managing Partner for Knowledge Computers’ US Operations. In Kuljit’s spare time, he enjoys travelling, real estate investing and spending time with his family. Kuljit Parmar is married to wife Janice, and they have 3 young children: Marcus and twins Grant and Jessanna.

Dave Potter is a founding partner of Knowledge Computers’ US Division. Dave Potter brought to Knowledge Computers his vast sales experience and spends countless hours working with our account executives in all locations. Prior to Knowledge Computers, Dave held senior account executive positions and sales manager positions in both the Cisco Networking industry as well as the Logistical services industry. Dave has been responsible for assembling the Knowledge Computers Minneapolis team and works very closely with many of Knowledge Computers Fortune 500 accounts. On top of leading the Cisco sales team in Minnesota, Dave wears many hats including Director of US Operations, and Marketing manager for all Knowledge Computers locations in Toronto, Minneapolis, Singapore, and Vancouver. Dave prides himself on going above and beyond to take care of all clients’ needs whether domestic or global. “Immediate response, fast delivery and quality products are always our goals.” Dave is married to wife Liz and they have 3 kids: Elias, Kate and Owen.

Alan Ler has been instrumental in the growth of Knowledge Computers Singapore. Alan has helped develop the sales team that services the Southeast Asia region. Alan heads up Knowledge Computers broker division as well as the procurrement for Knowledge Computers Singapore. Alan came over to take on a partnership role at Knowledge Computers from AT&T where he was a senior network engineer. Previous to his role at AT&T, Alan held a networking position at SingTel. Taking a huge risk from a secure senior position at a Fortune 500 company, Alan could see the potential for refurbished enterprise networking in Singapore as well as many Southeast Asia regions. Bringing to the team his strong technical knowledge and tireless work ethic, Alan, along with Mei Leng Tang, have assembled a team based in Singapore that speak 8 languages and sell many enterprise platforms including Cisco, Juniper, IBM, SUN, HP. Alan has been a leader in developing Knowledge Computers Cisco rental program. Alan is married to wife Priscilla and they have 2 young daughters: Nichole and Kimberly.
